    That would be great. If any input from a covenant drive would be comforting to know. I know it might be bad going to covenant. But knowing it going to happen, Helps. Thanks.

    They are calling to setup the bus ticket tomorrow.To pick the time to leave. Now with that being said,I hear there is a road test as soon as you get off the bus. No matter what time it is. I heard its four turns all right. About 15 min long. If this is ture. I would not like end up there at night after riding on a bus all night. Then try to drive a truck with a 53 foot trailor at night. In a place I don't know. for a road test. But late night maybe no traffic for the road test. What do you thank. I have never been to Chattanooga, Tenn. I have been to nassville and frankfer tenn. Thanks for your time.

    Relax youll be fine. Nothing wrong with Covenant. The deal is as a new driver your are going to have to get used to a life style change that no one can really prepare you for. Some Good, Bad and indifferent. Just hang in there and dont get on a I/m not going to do that deal. As a driver you are the only one to louse. The bad get thru it and move on The good cherish it. The rest just does not matter. Listen to your trainer, he will probably tell you stuff about logging the seems wrong, listen to him, dont argue. Once your iyour truck you can try it your way.

    Oh yeah do not over pack, keep it to clothes, save cb's XM'x TV'S for your own truck.

    Sit back and enjoy.
     
    big wheels Thanks this.
